Please Explainthe Huygens' Principle.
Christian Huygens, a contemporary of Newton's, thought light was a wave and proposed a theory or principle that is still useful in understanding the propagation of waves. Huygens' Principle is that every point on a wavefront is the source of new wavelets and the new wavefront is the envelope of these wavelets. As a wave encounters an obstruction - like a slit edge - the new wave bends around this obstruction.
